Fitness Requirements
Being a police officer requires a certain level of physical fitness.
You must pass a fitness test during the first week of your certification program in order to continue. You must also pass an exit exam to complete your certification. The key to success is to start early and to continue your exercise regimen throughout the duration of the program.*
*Consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
